    Silo Pickups

    I've got 2 Silo pickguards I want to load up with some pickups for some different sounds to try in my Silos. Both are HSH. Not really looking for super high gain stuff. I mainly like clean sounds, and enjoy playing some blues rock, among other styles. My Morse has some very nice sounds, and I like DiMarzios.

    What pickups are used in the 20th Silo?
    What are any of you (that have modded your Silos) using?
    Can you recommend some good pick-ups or websites that describe the various pickup models and tones?


    Thanks.

    The MM90 AL is the most underrated axe on the planet!

    Yes, the 20th Silo pickups are awesome! I hope they are the virtual vintage! The ASS I have coming already has the Virtual Vintages in it, it would be great if they sound similar to the 20th.

    Don't remember the source, but I also heard they were Virtual vintage. Maybe someone from EBMM can confirm if these are special/custom built for the 20th or if they were the Dimarzio Virtual Vintage.

    Virtual PAF neck model & F-spaced Virtual Hot PAF bridge model.

    I read this on the forum here at one time and took note of it...if you search, you can probably find it.
